StreetPass 2: Rise from the Ashes

This is a work in progress

If you were disheartened to hear of the demise of HomePass, then know that there is an alternative now. It is not elegant by any means, but you can share your StreetPass file; that is, every StreetPass you've accumulated but haven't used are stored in a single file. Copy that file and you can keep using the same SPs over and over or use someone else's collection. Instructions, links, and other info are HERE.

To summarize what's in that Google Sheet, your CECD is the file that contains your unused SPs. It is located at `ctrnand/data/ID0/sysdata/00010026/00000000`. I posted some information in my other guide (ctrl-F for "streetpass") and on GBATemp.

The instructions for using a downloaded CECD are pretty simple:

1. Open GodMode9.
1. Copy the desired CECD over your existing one (rename to 00000000 if it isn't already).
1. Immediately select the file and opt to "Calculate CMAC". Fix the file if it asks.
1. Boot up and use the SPs as you desire.

Feel free to add your own info (in keeping with the existing format). Region shouldn't matter, but there's a column in the sheet for including the source console's region anyway. If you're looking for a particular game's SP, just sort by that game and select the CECD files that contain at least one SP.

The more people we get to contribute their files, then the more useful this post will be to everyone. All you have to do to help is upload your CECD and type into the sheet what unused StreetPasses you have and how many transmissions you got. Thanks!

This was also posted over in 3dshacks. If you comment, I check that more regularly.

Hi I have managed to use a file from the list and it worked, I got 3 hits from random people. Thanks.

Problem is I can't make it work again.

I have tried 5 files now, renaming the old one, and pasting the new one place. Followed instructions exactly.... I think.

Please help, can you only do this once? I really am stuck as to why it won't work again.

try put the file in sd root card and try again steps this work for me and I get any problems

I've uploaded a new CECD file
I hope the app is finished someday

The app is done, but it has no user interface. That is where the dev is stuck.

Hi, I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to do something like a "streetpass 2: guide for dummies". I managed to do many things with my console following tutorials, even from this web, but this is something complex and quite disorganized. Thank you!

The guide is in the Google doc. It says exactly what to do. We can't make it any simpler. You put a file on your SD, and then use Godmode to write the file to a specific place in NAND. That is it. For dumping your unused passes, you do the opposite, pulling the file from NAND to your SD card. This allows you to recycle passes endlessly.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

This may have already been asked, but is there a way to create our own streetpass file? What i mean is, the file that go through when the other person recieves a streetpass from us. Not just our streetpasses that we've recieved, but the actual streetpass file that the other person recieves when they would usually streetpass you.?

The only way so far is to have a second system and pass yourself, then export the passes the other system receives.

Only just found out about this and it certainly sounds pretty awesome. Still enjoy messing around with the mii plaza games, but would be nice being able to get all the puzzle pieces and do other things with characters rather than random chance.

Has there been any progress on the App interface? I'm kind of in agreement with others, while Godmode might work, it still will be easier with a streamlined process. only just recently started tinkering with using 3ds Homebrew, so, eh, better late than never ^^;;

This tool will be wonderful if someone complete them. I installed Rhythm Heaven Megamix long ago and never obtained the Box Fight achievement because of a total of 0 street passes. Maybe one day it will be completed... I am kind of scared to play around GodMode9 to be honest

What was StreetPass and HomePass? I don't remember

StreetPass is Nintendo’s way of sharing data between wireless two 3DS family systems near each other. What exactly gets shared depends on the game, but a good example that all systems have is the Miis through the 3DS Streetpass Plaza.

HomePass was a trick that people used to easily get hits on streetpass from the comfort of their home. Nintendo used to have relays set up in certain places that allowed people to streetpass with each other without being there at the same time. Occasionally, Nintendo opened these up so you could streetpass with people all over the world just by visiting the area. HomePass worked by mimicking one of these relays using another device, such as a raspberry pi. Unfortunately, Nintendo shutdown their streetpass relay system, which also killed HomePass. Now streetpass is only possible between two nearby 3DS systems.

Indeed, it is true unless, that is, you're passing by the Nintendo World Store in NYC (at the Rockefeller Center) or a Best Buy in Canada

This is a cool thing! But, is there a way to create Custom CECDs? If so, then that would be great for something like Find Mii 2 and the Poison Room. (Also is that Box App still in development?)
